A dusky brown-red tomato with greenish shoulders and a rich, almost salty, smoky-sweet taste. One of the original 'black' tomatoes prized for intense flavor.
A dark heirloom that brings dramatic color and a low-salt-needed savoriness to the plate, useful for anyone cooking to reduce sodium without losing flavor.
The dark pigment of Black Krim layers anthocyanin antioxidants on top of the lycopene every tomato carries, making it an especially rich antioxidant fruit. Lycopene's link to lower prostate cancer risk is directly relevant to Black men's doubled mortality, and absorption rises sharply with cooking and fat. Potassium and a low glycemic load support blood pressure and metabolic health.
Stunning sliced raw for its color and savory depth; also cooks well. The naturally savory, almost salty flavor means it needs little added salt — a plus for blood pressure. Cook some with olive oil for lycopene.
